Collecting the sample data using the diskStats command

On Windows, use the diskStats command to collect the data that is required for analysis. This command can be used to collect data whether or not the InfoScale product is installed on the system. The diskStats utility is installed in the following location:

Veritas\Volume Replicator Advisor\bin\diskStats.exe

To collect data using the diskStats command

  1. Navigate to the specified path:

    Veritas\Volume Replicator Advisor\bin

  2. At the prompt, enter the following command with exactly the parameters shown:

    diskStats [-i interval [-c count]] \

    <drive 1> [[drive 2][drive 3]... ]

    The command displays the output on the console.

Note:

The diskStats command can accept only drive letters of the volumes as inputs. Volume names are not supported. The diskStats command also supports the volumes that an application creates.

To save the output to a file, you can redirect the output to a named file using the command:

diskStats [-i interval [-c count]] \

<drive 1> [[drive 2][drive 3]... ] > <filename>

After data collection completes, the file filename contains the sample data indiskStats format, which can be used for analysis by VRAdvisor. For more information,
